Originally from western Wisconsin right near the Minnesota border. Now I'm down in the very southeastern part of Minnesota at college. BNSF line is across the river and the CP/DM&E line runs right next to campus. Gotta love the location. I have a UP line that goes through my hometown.

BNSFlarson: Mine is next to my name, and if you click my name you can see my profile. Some people elect not to enter anything in their profile or to place their first name at least or their home state on their signature. That's Ok that is their perogative, but it sure is nice to have a first name at least, and a home state so we have some idea of where they live so we can share commonalities.
